Thanks but have unfortunately done that to death ,no one I know i have had any roofing work done
Even took to knocking at a random houses that had vents but they either couldnt remember who did them or they were done when they bought the house
Is there a certification scheme or something I need to look out for ,each roofer seems to claim to be a member of a different scheme ,for all I know they could be making them up0 -
marley tiles used to have a trade scheme. try them for roofers near you.

Careful with my builder. I found an excellent plumber on there and so when I wanted some joinery done I got my joiner there too. About 4 weeks after the joiner left faults started appearing with his work. My builder were no help at all but did allow me to withdraw my positive feedback. He wouldn't answer my calls after I complained. You are presurised into leaving feedback early on this site. The joiner had loads of good reports but did a real botch job of my kitchen and bathroom eg mirrors attached to walls with no rawl plugs, towel rail fell off damaging the plastic panelling, no flooring under the washer, parts of laminate flooring splintering, etc0
